Precautionary Statements
Hazards to Humans and Domestic Animals
WARNING. May be fatal if swallowed. Causes moderate
eye irritation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing.
This pesticide is toxic to mammals.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Applicators and other handlers must wear:
• Long-sleeved shirt and long pants
• Protective eyewear (goggles, face shield, or safety
glasses)
• Shoes plus socks
• Chemical-resistant gloves made of waterproof material
(barrier laminate, butyl rubber ≥ 14 mils, natural rubber
≥ 14 mils, neoprene rubber ≥ 14 mils, nitrile rubber
≥ 14 mils, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
≥ 14 mils, or Viton ≥ 14 mils)
• Chemical-resistant headgear for overhead exposure
• Chemical-resistant apron when cleaning equipment,
mixing, and loading
Follow the manufacturers instructions for cleaning and
maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables
exist, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE
separately from other laundry.
Engineering Controls Statement
When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or air-
craft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the
Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesti-
cides [40 CFR 170.240(d)(4-6)], the handler PPE
requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in
the WPS.
USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
Users should:
• Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum,
using tobacco, or using the toilet.
• Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets
inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean
clothing.
• Remove PPE immediately after handling this product.
Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon
as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean
clothing.
Environmental Hazards
This product may contaminate water through drift of spray
in wind.
This pesticide is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates.
Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in
water adjacent to treated areas.
DO NOT apply directly to water, areas where surface
water is present, or intertidal areas below the mean high
water mark. DO NOT contaminate water when disposing
of equipment washwaters or rinsate.
Groundwater Advisory
This chemical has properties and characteristics associat-
ed with chemicals detected in groundwater. Pyraclostrobin
is known to leach through soil into groundwater under cer-
tain conditions as a result of label use. This chemical may
leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are
permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
FIRST AID
If swallowed
• Call a poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment advice.
• Have person sip a glass of water if able to swallow.
• DO NOT induce vomiting unless told to do so by a poison control center or doctor.
• DO NOT give anything to an unconscious person.
If on skin
• Take off contaminated clothing.
• Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.
If in eyes
• Hold eye open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove contact lenses, if present, after first 5 minutes; then continue rinsing.
• Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.
If inhaled
• Move person to fresh air.
• If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance; then give artificial respiration, prefer-
ably by mouth to mouth, if possible.
• Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice.
HOTLINE NUMBER
Have the product container or label with you when calling a poison control center or doctor or going for treatment.
You may also contact BASF Agricultural Solutions US LLC (hereafter “BASF”) for emergency medical treatment infor-
mation: 1-800-832-HELP (4357).

Surface Water Advisory
This product may impact surface water quality due to run-
off of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining
soils and soils with shallow ground water. This product is
classified as having high potential for reaching surface
water via runoff for several months or more after applica-
tion. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip
between areas to which this product is applied and sur-
face water features including ponds, streams, and springs
will reduce the potential loading of pyraclostrobin from run-
off water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be
reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall or irrigation
is expected to occur within 48 hours. Sound erosion con-
trol practices will reduce this products contribution to
surface water contamination.
Directions For Use
It is a violation of federal law to use this product in a man-
ner inconsistent with its labeling. DO NOT apply this
product in a way that will contact workers or other per-
sons, either directly or through drift. Only protected
handlers may be in the area during application. For any
requirements specific to your state or tribe, consult the
agency responsible for pesticide regulation.
AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS

Product Information
Headline SC, a suspension concentrate (SC), contains
the active ingredient pyraclostrobin, a member of the
strobilurin class of chemistry derived from a natural
antifungal substance. Preventive applications optimize dis-
ease control, resulting in improved plant health. The
increase in plant health comes from the combined effect of
disease control (including fungal diseases listed in
Crop-specific directions), improved growth efficiency and
improved stress tolerance. Overall increased plant health
may result in an improvement in crop growth and crop
quality as well as increased crop yields.
Information regarding the contents and levels of metals in
this product is available on the Internet at
http://www.aapfco.org/metals.html.
To maximize disease control, apply Headline SC in a reg-
ularly scheduled protective spray program and use in a
rotation program with other fungicides.
Because of its high specific activity, Headline SC has
good residual activity against target fungi.
Headline SC is not for use in greenhouse or transplant
production.
Mode of Action
Pyraclostrobin, the active ingredient of Headline SC,
belongs to the group of respiration inhibitors classified by
the US EPA and Canada PMRA as quinone outside inhibi-
tors (QoI) or target site of action Group 11 fungicides.
Resistance Management
Headline SC is effective against pathogens resistant to
fungicides with modes of action different from those of QoI
fungicides (target site Group 11), such as dicarboximides,
sterol inhibitors, benzimidazoles, or phenylamides.
Fungal isolates resistant to Group 11 fungicides, such as
pyraclostrobin, azoxystrobin, fluoxastrobin, trifloxystrobin,
and kresoxim-methyl, can eventually dominate the fungal
population if Group 11 fungicides are used predominantly
and repeatedly in the same field in successive years as the
primary method of control for the targeted pathogen spe-
cies. This can result in reduction of disease control by
Headline SC or other Group 11 fungicides.
DO NOT exceed the maximum annual use rate or the total
number of Headline SC applications per year and the
maximum number of Headline SC applications stated in
Table 1. Headline
® SC fungicide Restrictions and
Limitations Overview and Table 2. Headline ® SC
fungicide Crop-specific Requirements . Follow the
label instructions for use of Headline SC or other target
site of action Group 11 fungicides that have a similar site
of action on the same pathogens.
When using a Group 11 fungicide as a solo product, the
number of applications should be no more than 1/3 of the
total number of fungicide applications per year.
5
In programs applying or using tank mixes or pre-mixes of a
Group 11 fungicide with a fungicide of another group, the
number of Group 11 fungicide (QoI)-containing applica-
tions must not be more than 1/2 of the total number of
fungicide applications per year. In programs applying or
using Group 11 fungicides with both solo products and
mixtures, the number of Group 11 fungicide (Qol)-
containing applications must not be more than 1/2 of the
total number of fungicide applications per year.
In fungicide alternation programs of Group 11 (QoI)-
containing fungicides with non-Group 11 fungicides of
different modes of action, the maximum number of
sequential applications stated in Table 1. Headline
® SC
fungicide Restrictions and Limitations Overview and
Table 2. Headline ® SC fungicide Crop-specific
Requirements must be alternated with at least an equal
number of applications of a non-Group 11-containing
fungicide prior to using the Group 11 (QoI)-containing
fungicide again. If two sequential applications of a
Group 11 (QoI)-containing fungicide are made, follow this
block of applications with 2 or more applications of a
non-Group 11-containing fungicide prior to using the
Group 11 (QoI)-containing fungicide again.
For resistance management, Headline SC contains a
Group 11 fungicide. Any fungal population may contain
individuals naturally resistant to Headline SC and other
Group 11 fungicides. A gradual or total loss of pest con-
trol may occur over time if these fungicides are used
repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-man-
agement strategies should be followed.
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the fol-
lowing steps:
• Rotate the use of Headline SC or other Group 11 fungi-
cides within a growing season sequence with different
groups that control the same pathogens.
• Use tank mixtures with fungicides from different target
site of action groups that are registered/permitted for the
same use and that are effective against the pathogens of
concern.
• Use at least the minimum application rate as labeled by
the manufacturer.
• Adopt an integrated disease management program for
fungicide use that includes scouting, uses historical infor-
mation related to pesticide use, and crop rotation, and
which considers host plant resistance, impact of environ-
mental conditions on disease development, disease
thresholds, as well as cultural, biological and other
chemical control practices.
• Consult your local extension specialist, certified crop
advisor and/or BASF representative for additional IPM
strategies established for your area. Headline SC can
be used in agricultural extension advisory (disease fore-
casting) programs, which recommend application timing
based on environmental factors favorable for disease
development.
• Where possible, make use of predictive disease models
to effectively time fungicide applications. Note that using
predictive models alone is not sufficient to manage
resistance.
• Monitor treated fungal populations for resistance
development.
• Monitor efficacy of all fungicides used in the disease
management program against the targeted pathogen
and record other factors that may influence fungicide
performance and/or disease development.
• If a Group 11 target site fungicide, such as
Headline SC, appears to be less effective against a
pathogen that it previously controlled or suppressed,
contact a BASF representative, local extension specialist,
or certified crop advisor for further investigation.
• Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop
advisor for any additional pesticide resistance-
management and/or IPM recommendations for specific
crops and pathogens.
Application Instructions
Apply Headline SC rates as instructed in Table 2.
Headline® SC fungicide Crop-specific
Requirements . Apply Headline SC with ground sprayer,
aerial equipment, or through sprinkler irrigation equipment.
Check equipment frequently for calibration.
For containers 5 gallons or less, shake well prior to
use. For containers greater than 5 gallons, recircu-
late prior to use. Consult BASF Representatives for
additional information regarding agitation and recirculation.
Under low-level disease conditions, use minimum applica-
tion rates. For severe or threatening disease conditions,
use maximum application rates and shortened spray
intervals.
Cleaning Spray Equipment
Spray equipment must be cleaned thoroughly before and
after applying this product, particularly if a product with the
potential to injure crops was used prior to Headline SC.
Ground Application
Apply Headline SC in sufficient water to ensure thorough
coverage of foliage, blooms, and fruit for optimum disease
control. Refer to Additives and Tank Mixing
Information section for adjuvant or crop oil restrictions for
ground applications in corn. See Table 2. Headline
® SC
fungicide Crop-specific Requirements for in-furrow
instructions.
Aerial Application
For aerial application in New York State, DO NOT
apply within 100 feet of aquatic habitats (such as,
but not limited to lakes, reservoirs, rivers, streams,
marshes, ponds, estuaries, and commercial fish
ponds).
6
Unless otherwise specified in this label or in supplemental
labeling, use no less than 5 gallons of spray solution per
acre. For aerial application to citrus orchards, use no less
than 10 gallons of spray solution per acre. DO NOT apply
when conditions favor drift from target area.
Aerial Application to Alfalfa, Barley, Corn,
Oats, Rye, Soybean, Wheat and Triticale
Aerial applications of Headline® SC fungicide can be
made to corn, soybean, wheat and triticale in water vol-
umes of 1 or more gallons of spray solution per acre (gpa).
Aerial applications of Headline SC can be made to alfalfa,
barley, oats and rye in water volumes of 2 or more gallons
of spray solution per acre (gpa). The use of a crop oil or
adjuvant can be used to improve spray coverage (see
Additives and Tank Mixing Information section). Refer
to the adjuvant product label for specific use directions
and restrictions.
For optimum results in high disease pressure, use a mini-
mum spray volume of 4 gpa. Select spray nozzles,
pumping pressure, and sprayer height to provide spray
droplets that penetrate throughout the crop canopy. Spray
calibration must be conducted to confirm spray droplet
sizes. Continue to monitor spray application (including
weather conditions) to ensure proper droplet size and can-
opy penetration.
Spray volumes of 5 gallons or more per acre. For
applications with spray volumes of 5 gallons or more per
acre, an adjuvant can be used to improve spray coverage
(see Additives and Tank Mixing Information ). Refer to
the adjuvant product label for specific use directions and
restrictions.
Select spray nozzles, pumping pressure, and sprayer
height to provide spray droplets that penetrate throughout
the crop canopy. Calibrate spray to confirm spray droplet
sizes. Monitor spray application including weather condi-
tions to ensure proper droplet size and canopy
penetration.
Aerial Application Methods and Equipment
The interaction of many equipment-related and weather-
related factors determines the potential for spray drift. The
applicator and the grower are responsible for considering
all these factors when making decisions.
DO NOT apply under circumstances where possible drift
to unprotected persons, to food, forage, or other plantings
that might be damaged, or crops thereof rendered unfit for
sale, use or consumption can occur.
The following drift management requirements must be fol-
lowed to avoid off-target drift movement to agricultural field
crops. These requirements DO NOT apply to forestry
applications, public health uses, or to applications using
dry formulations.
Mandatory Spray Drift Management
Aerial Applications:
• DO NOT release spray at a height greater than 10 ft
above the ground or vegetative canopy, unless a great-
er application height is necessary for pilot safety.
• Applicators are required to select nozzle and pressure
that deliver a medium or coarser droplet size
(ASABE S641).
• DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 mph at
the application site. If the windspeed is greater than
10 mph, the boom length must be 65% or less of the
wingspan for fixed wing aircraft and 75% or less of the
rotor diameter for helicopters. Otherwise, the boom
length must be 75% or less of the wingspan for fixed-
wing aircraft and 90% or less of the rotor diameter for
helicopters
• If the windspeed is 10 miles per hour or less, applica-
tors must use 1/2 swath displacement upwind at the
downwind edge of the field. When the windspeed is
between 11 to 15 miles per hour, applicators must use
3/4 swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge
of the field.
• DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
Ground Boom Applications:
• User must only apply with the release height recom-
mended by the manufacturer, but no more than 4 ft
above the ground or crop canopy.
• Applicators are required to select nozzle and pressure
that deliver a medium or coarser droplet size
(ASABE S572).
• DO NOT apply when wind speeds exceed 15 miles
per hour at the application site.
• DO NOT apply during temperature inversions.
Spray Drift Advisories
THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-
SITE SPRAY DRIFT. BE AWARE OF NEARBY
NONTARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL
CONDITIONS.
Importance of Droplet Size
An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large
droplets. Use the largest droplets that provide target pest
control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray
drift, the potential for drift will be greater if applications are
made improperly or under unfavorable environmental
conditions.
Controlling Droplet Size - Ground Boom
• Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger
droplets are produced will reduce spray drift. Use the
highest practical spray volume for the application. If a
greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle
with a higher flow rate.
• Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommend-
ed for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and
droplet size.
7
• Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for
the intended application. Consider using nozzles
designed to reduce drift.
Controlling Droplet Size - Aircraft
• Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers recom-
mendations for setting up nozzles. Generally, to reduce
fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the
airflow in flight.
Boom Height Ground Boom
For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with
the crop and have minimal bounce.
Release Height - Aircraft
Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift.
Shielded Sprayers
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray
drift. Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that the
shields are not interfering with the uniform deposition of
the spray on the target area.
Temperature and Humidity
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use
larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.
Temperature Inversions
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Tem-
perature inversions are characterized by increasing
temperature with altitude and are common on nights with
limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of
an inversion can be indicated by ground fog or by the
movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft
smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in
a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates
an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly
dissipates indicates good vertical mixing. Avoid applica-
tions during temperature inversions.
Wind
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID
APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS.
Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns
and terrain that could affect spray drift.
Boomless Ground Applications
Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to
reduce the potential for spray drift.
Handheld Technology Applications
Take precautions to minimize spray drift.
Directions For Use Through Sprinkler
Irrigation Systems
Sprayer Preparation
Chemical tank and injector system must be thoroughly
cleaned. Flush system with clean water.
Application Instructions
Apply Headline® SC fungicide at rates and timings
specified in this label.
Sprinkler Irrigation Applications Use Precautions
• Apply this product only through sprinkler irrigation sys-
tems including center pivot, lateral move, end tow, side
(wheel) roll, traveler, big gun, solid set, or hand move irri-
gation systems. DO NOT apply this product through any
other type of irrigation system.
• Add this product to the pesticide supply tank containing
sufficient water to maintain a continuous flow by the
injection equipment. In continuous moving systems,
inject this product/water mixture continuously, applying
the labeled rate per acre for that crop. DO NOT exceed
1/2 inch (13,577 gallons) per acre. In stationary or non-
continuous moving systems, inject the product/water
mixture in the last 15 to 30 minutes of each set allowing
sufficient time for all of the required pesticide to be
applied by all the sprinkler heads and applying the
labeled rate per acre for that crop. DO NOT apply when
wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for
treatment. Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal
pesticide residues in the crop can result from nonuniform
distribution of treated water. Thorough coverage of foli-
age is required for good control. Maintain agitation
during the entire application period.
• Contact state extension service specialists, equipment
manufacturers, or other experts for calibration questions.
• The system must contain a functional check valve,
vacuum-relief valve, and low-pressure drain appropriately
located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water-source
contamination from backflow.
• The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional,
automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow
of fluid back toward the injection pump.
• The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a func-
tional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located
on the intake side of the injection pump and connected
to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being with-
drawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is
either automatically or manually shut down.
• The system must contain functional interlocking controls
to automatically shut off the pesticide-injection pump
when the water pump motor stops.
• The irrigation line or water pump must include a function-
al pressure switch that will stop the water pump motor
when the water pressure decreases to the point where
pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
• Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive
displacement injection pump (e.g. diaphragm pump),
effectively designed and constructed of materials that are
compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted
with a system interlock.
• Allow sufficient time for pesticide to be flushed through
all lines and all nozzles before turning off irrigation water.
A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and
responsible for its operation, or under supervision of the
8
responsible person, shall shut the system down and
make necessary adjustments should the need arise.
• DO NOT connect an irrigation system (including green-
house systems) used for pesticide application to a public
water system unless the pesticide label-prescribed safe-
ty devices for public water systems are in place.
Specific Instructions for Public Water
Systems
1. Public water system means a system for the provision to
the public of piped water for human consumption if such
system has at least 15 service connections or regularly
serves an average of at least 25 individuals daily at least
60 days out of the year.
2. Chemigation systems connected to public water sys-
tems must contain a functional, reduced-pressure zone,
back-flow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent in
the water supply line upstream from the point of pesti-
cide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water
from the public water system must be discharged into a
reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall
be a complete physical break (air gap) between the out-
let end of the fill pipe and the top or overflow rim of the
reservoir tank of at least twice the inside diameter of the
fill pipe.
3. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a function-
al, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the
flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
4. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a function-
al, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on
the intake side of the injection pump and connected to
the system interlock to prevent fluid from being with-
drawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is
either automatically or manually shut down.
5. The system must contain functional interlocking controls
to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump
when the water pump motor stops, or in cases where
there is no water pump, when the water pressure
decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is
adversely affected.
6. Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive
displacement injection pump (e.g. diaphragm pump),
effectively designed and constructed of materials that
are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fit-
ted with a system interlock.
Additives and Tank Mixing Information
Headline® SC fungicide can be tank mixed with most
recommended fungicides, insecticides, herbicides, liquid
fertilizers, biological control products, adjuvants, and addi-
tives as specified in Table 2. Headline
® SC fungicide
Crop-specific Requirements .
Under some conditions, the use of additives or adjuvants
may improve the performance of Headline SC. However,
all varieties and cultivars have not been tested with possi-
ble tank mix combinations. Local conditions can also
influence crop tolerance and may not match those under
which BASF has conducted testing. Physical incompatibili-
ty, reduced disease control, or crop injury can result from
mixing Headline SC with other products. Therefore,
before using any tank mix (fungicides, insecticides, herbi-
cides, liquid fertilizers, biological control products,
adjuvants and additives), test the combination on a small
portion of the crop to be treated to ensure that a phytotox-
ic response will not occur as a result of application. Follow
the most restrictive label.
Adjuvant or Crop Oil Use Limitations on
Corn (ground and aerial applications)
Adjuvant crop damage can occur when an adjuvant or
crop oil is used after the V8 stage and before the VT stage
(the VT stage is defined as when the tassels last branch is
completely visible outside the whorl). If an adjuvant or crop
oil is used after the V8 stage and before the VT stage, the
grower and user are responsible for contacting the adju-
vant source (adjuvant distributor, retailer, or manufacturer)
for advice and confirmation that the adjuvant has been
tested and proven to be safe for application from V8 to VT
corn stage. Refer to adjuvant and/or crop oil labels for spe-
cific use directions and restrictions. Always follow the most
restrictive label.
Another fungicide or an insecticide may be included in the
tank mix if needed and labeled for use on corn. Refer to
the tank mix pesticide product labels for specific use direc-
tions and restrictions. Always follow the most restrictive
label.
Mixing Order
1. Water - Agitate a thoroughly clean sprayer tank 3/4 full
of clean water.
2. Agitation - Maintain constant agitation throughout mix-
ing and application.
3. Inductor - If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly
after each component has been added.
4. Products in PVA bags - Place any product contained
in water-soluble PVA bags into the mixing tank. Wait
until all water-soluble PVA bags have fully dissolved and
the product is evenly mixed in the spray tank before
continuing.
5. Water-dispersible products (such as Headline SC,
dry flowables, wettable powders, suspension concen-
trates, or suspo-emulsions) - For containers 5 gallons
or less, shake well prior to use. For containers
greater than 5 gallons, recirculate prior to use.
Consult BASF Representatives for additional information
regarding agitation and recirculation.
6. Water-soluble products
7. Emulsifiable concentrates (such as oil concentrates
when applicable)
8. Water-soluble additives (such as ammonium sulfate
[AMS] or urea ammonium nitrate [UAN] when applicable)
9. Remaining quantity of water
Make sure each component is thoroughly mixed and sus-
pended before adding tank mix partners. Maintain
constant agitation during application. See Table 2.

Restrictions and Limitations - All Crops
• DO NOT exceed the maximum product rate (fl ozs/A) per
year, the maximum rate per application, or the total num-
ber of applications of Headline
® SC fungicide per year
as stated in Table 1. Headline® SC fungicide
Restrictions and Limitations Overview and Table 2.
Headline® SC fungicide Crop-specific
Requirements . Preharvest interval (PHI) restrictions are
also included in these tables.
• DO NOT use Headline SC in greenhouse or transplant
production.
• For aerial application in New York State, DO NOT
apply within 100 feet of aquatic habitats (such as,
but not limited to lakes, reservoirs, rivers, streams,
marshes, ponds, estuaries, and commercial fish
ponds).
Crop Rotation Restriction
Crops listed on the Headline SC, Cabrio® EG fungicide
and Pristine® fungicide labels may be planted immedi-
ately following the last application. For all other crops,
DO NOT plant sooner than 14 days after the last
application.
Ground Application Directed or Banded
Sprays
The application rates shown in the following tables pertain
to both aerial and ground (broadcast) methods of applica-
tion. Headline SC may also be applied as a directed or
banded spray over the rows or plant beds with alleys or
row middles left unsprayed. For such uses, reduce the
Headline SC rate in proportion to the area actually
sprayed. This adjustment is necessary to prevent applying
the product at use rates higher than permitted on this
label.
Use the following formula to determine the broadcast
equivalent rate for directed or banded sprays:

Application Directions. Begin Headline SC applications prior to disease development. To maximize yields in cere-
als, protect the flag leaf. Apply Headline SC immediately after flag-leaf emergence for optimum results.
Headline SC does not control Fusarium head blight (head scab) or prevent the reductions in grain quality that can
result from this disease. When head blight is a concern, manage this disease with fungicides that are labeled for and
effective in managing this disease, and with cultural practices like crop rotation and plowing to reduce crop residues
that serve as an inoculum source.
Resistance Management. To limit development of resistance, DO NOT apply more than 0.29 lb ai pyraclostrobin
(18 fl ozs Headline SC) per acre per year.
DO NOT make more than two (2) sequential Headline SC applications before alternating to a labeled non-Group 11
fungicide with a different mode of action.
DO NOT harvest barley hay or feed green-chopped barley within 14 days of last application.
*
For early season control of net blotch, Septoria leaf and glume blotch, spot blotch, and tan spot when conditions
favor disease development, apply 3 to 6 fl ozs per acre of Headline SC either in combination with a herbicide appli-
cation or when conditions favor disease development. When the 3 to 6 fl ozs early season application rate is used, a
second application of Headline SC may be required to protect the emerged flag leaf. Environmental conditions for
disease or current disease pressure at the time of flag-leaf emergence should be used to determine the Headline SC
rate for the second application. For high disease pressure, use the higher rate of Headline SC. Early season control
is not registered for use in California.

Application Directions. Begin Headline SC applications prior to disease development. To maximize yields in cere-
als, protect the flag leaf. Apply Headline SC immediately after flag-leaf emergence for optimum results.
Headline SC does not control Fusarium head blight (head scab) or prevent reductions in grain quality that can result
from this disease. When head blight is a concern, manage this disease with fungicides that are labeled for and effective
in managing this disease, and with cultural practices like crop rotation and plowing to reduce crop residues that serve
as an inoculum source.
DO NOT harvest oat hay or feed green-chopped oats within 14 days of last application.
Resistance Management. To limit development of resistance, DO NOT apply more than 0.29 lb ai pyraclostrobin
(18 fl ozs Headline SC) per acre per year.
DO NOT make more than two (2) sequential Headline SC applications before alternating to a labeled non-Group 11
fungicide with a different mode of action.
*
For early season control of leaf blotch, Septoria blotch and stem rot, and spot blotch when conditions favor disease
development, apply 3 to 6 fl ozs per acre of Headline SC either in combination with a herbicide application or when
conditions favor disease development. When the 3 to 6 fl ozs early season application rate is used, a second applica-
tion of Headline SC may be required to protect the emerged flag leaf. Environmental conditions for disease or current
disease pressure at the time of flag-leaf emergence should be used to determine the Headline SC rate for the sec-
ond application. For high disease pressure, use the higher rate of Headline SC. Early season control is not registered
for use in California.

Application Directions. Begin Headline SC applications prior to disease development. To maximize yields in cere-
als, protect the flag leaf. Apply Headline SC immediately after flag-leaf emergence for optimum results.
Headline SC does not control Fusarium head blight (head scab) or prevent the reductions in grain quality that can
result from this disease. When head blight is a concern, manage this disease with fungicides that are labeled for and
effective in managing this disease, and with cultural practices like crop rotation and plowing to reduce crop residues
that serve as an inoculum source.
No livestock feeding restrictions.
Resistance Management. To limit development of resistance, DO NOT apply more than 0.29 lb ai pyraclostrobin
(18 fl ozs Headline SC) per acre per year.
DO NOT make more than two (2) sequential Headline SC applications before alternating to a labeled non-Group 11
fungicide with a different mode of action.
*
For early season control of leaf spot and Septoria leaf and glume blotch when conditions favor disease development,
apply 3 to 6 fl ozs per acre of Headline SC either in combination with a herbicide application or when conditions
favor disease development. When the 3 to 6 fl ozs early season application rate is used, a second application of
Headline SC may be required to protect the emerged flag leaf. Environmental conditions for disease or current dis-
ease pressure at the time of flag-leaf emergence should be used to determine the Headline SC rate for the second
application. For high disease pressure, use the higher rate of Headline SC. Early season control is not registered for
use in California.

For early season control of tan spot, Septoria leaf and glume blotch, and spot blotch when conditions favor disease
development, apply 3 to 6 fl ozs per acre of Headline SC either in combination with a herbicide application or when
conditions favor disease development. When the 3 to 6 fl ozs early season application rate is used, a second applica-
tion of Headline SC may be required to protect the emerged flag leaf. Environmental conditions for disease or current
disease pressure at the time of flag-leaf emergence should be used to determine the Headline SC rate for the sec-
ond application. For high disease pressure, use the higher rate of Headline SC. Early season control is not registered
for use in California.
